Summary:
Microsatellite instability (MSI) is associated with hypermutability of short DNA sequence repeats and defects related to the mismatch repair (MMR) system. This has been observed in diverse cancer types. The panel contains a single primer pool that amplifies a total of 76 amplicons to assess the MSI status from FFPE DNA of human cancer tissue sections.
Microsatellite instability (MSI) is associated with hypermutability of short DNA sequence repeats and is related to defects in the mismatch repair (MMR) system. MSI has been observed in diverse cancer types – including, but not limited to colorectal, gastric and endometrial cancers. Research studies have shown MSI-High to be predictive of response to immunotherapy. The Ion AmpliSeq™ Microsatellite Instability Research Panel contains a single primer pool that amplifies a total of 76 amplicons to assess the MSI status from DNA from formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) human cancer tissue sections. This panel is compatible with Ion AmpliSeq™ Kit 2.0 and Ion AmpliSeq™ Kit Plus User Guide Protocols. To analyze the sequencing output from this panel, a Torrent Suite plugin under the name “MSICall” is available on the Themo Fisher Scientific Plugin store.See panel README for more information.

Summary:
This panel analyses clinically relevant targets for identification of specific methylation patterns within a DNA sample. The panel contains 40 amplicons (including 2 control amplicons) to detect methylation status of 38 targets including targets associated with colon cancer, prostate cancer, Leukemia, and lymphoma.
Ion AmpliSeq™ Methylation Panel for Cancer Research analyzes clinically relevant targets using the bisulfite method for identifying specific methylation patterns within a DNA or FFPE DNA sample. With low DNA input, the panel provides high accuracy, ease of use, and short time to answer. This Ion AmpliSeq™ Methylation Panel protocol combines a one day bisulfite kit protocol with the one day Ion AmpliSeq™ Library Kit Plus protocol to create (NGS) libraries for target DNA methylation assessment during sequencing. Consult the bisulfite methylation library construction protocol using the Ion AmpliSeq™ Library Kit Plus and the protocol using the Ion AmpliSeq™ Kit for Chef DL8 for detailed instructions. The panel contains one pool containing 40 amplicons (including 2 control amplicons) to detect methylation status of 38 targets including targets associated with colon cancer, prostate cancer, leukemia, and lymphoma as published in Bock et al. 2016. The DNA methylation targets, evaluated in this technology benchmarking study by the BLUEPRINT Consortium, are highly validated to be reproducible and reliable cancer biomarkers by multiple assays, and therefore this panel serves as a targeted DNA methylation cancer panel and a reliable technical as well as biological reference. To analyze the sequencing output from this panel, a Torrent Suite plugin under the name “methylation_analysis” is available on the Themo Fisher Scientific Plugin store. For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

Description of the plugin: The methylation_analysis plugin performs alignment and methylation calling for amplicons on both the Watson (W) and Crick (C) strands. Each amplicon may have zero, one or more designated CpG targets (hotspots) of interest. A summary report shows each barcode name along with the sample name, the total number of reads covering the target CpGs, and the percentage of those reads that are methylated. In addition, for each barcode, text files are generated giving the number of methylated reads, unmethylated reads and percent methylation for each amplicon. There are separate text files for the designated target CpGs, all CpGs in the amplicon insert and all non CpG Cs in the amplicon insert. This plugin has been tested using the Ion AmpliSeq™ Methylation Panel for Cancer Research only. If you choose to use this plugin for any panel other than the Ion AmpliSeq™ Methylation Panel for Cancer Research you must validate it for your purposes. We can’t attest to the quality of the results with a custom panel. This product is labeled For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
*Based on the data from the 6 control samples of commercially available human methylated & unmethylated DNA standard set. The DNA standards are purified from HCT116 DKO cells that contain genetic knockouts of DNA methyltransferases, DNMT1 (-/-) and DNMT3b (-/-) , and the unmethylated standard has less than 5% methylated DNA. The human methylated DNA standard has been methylated enzymatically at all CpG dinucleotides by M. SssI methyltransferase.

Summary:
The TP53 gene codes the tumor suppressor protein p53 which has been extensible researched in the field of Human Oncology. The Ion AmpliSeq™ TP53 Panel is a 2 pool panel with 24 amplicons designed to analyze all coding exons of the TP53 gene.
Description
The tumor suppressor protein p53 is encoded by the TP53 gene, one of the most researched genes in human cancer. Genetic mutations in TP53 can impact gene expression of p53 and its downstream targets, and TP53 mutations are present in more than 50% of all types of human cancers. With input from Anne-Lise Børresen-Dale and her lab at the Norwegian Radium Hospital, Institute for Cancer Research, the Ion AmpliSeq™ TP53 Panel was designed and verified to analyze all coding exons of TP53 with 24 amplicons, enabling the advancement of cancer research in early detection, prevention, and therapy.
**Note that for the Ion AmpliSeq TP53 Panel, your order will contain only 750 pre-pooled reactions in tubes, no primer plates will be included in your order.
